I always see people say stuff like this but I never have any idea what it means or how to do it lol. I know you need some type of tool but what exactly?Punch the pin out.

Thanks bro really appreciate it!Ok @Moirae these are considered punches, ideally you’d have one that doesn’t taper and is the same size as the pin. View attachment 310646
You could get creative and use a nail or screwdriver ect. but a punch would be the proper tool.
Once you’ve acquired some kind of punch then put it directly on the end of the pin and hit the punch with a hammer or any heavy object nearby. The pin should pop out the other side. Then removal of the grub screw should be much easier to get out. That is if you haven’t already destroyed said grub..

Proper tools like mip drivers make all the difference in the world!I’ve somehow managed to strip a grub screw for my sway bar balls, I’m waiting on replacement grub screws before I go and tackle this.
LHS recommended Dynamite hex drivers. I’ve been pretty happy with these with the exception of the ink identifying the size quickly wore off.Proper tools like mip drivers make all the difference in the world!
I also use dynamite drivers. They have served me well and not stripped out. They also have replaceable tips. Mip's are better but also more $. My hammer in first pic is still my tool of choice however.LHS recommended Dynamite hex drivers. I’ve been pretty happy with these with the exception of the ink identifying the size quickly wore off.
